I just saw this article on the ABC News that a pair of wireless headphones (no brand provided) went up in flames due to the battery - presumably it's lithium. This happened when the user/owner was sleeping mid-flight from Beijing to Melbourne.

I'm particularly curious on what brand of headphones this happened on (I can speculate however would refrain from guessing the popular brand names till I can find another article to confirm).

That's a weird sense of humour?
 
No info on the headphones still...seems the ATSB has been tight-lipped about the brand name. Wonder why.
